So new episodes of Greek began airing last night. It's sitting on my dvr to be watched when I have a free moment not taken up by insanity. I also got a present from Amazon today - it didn't say who sent it - but it was Supernatural Season 4. Maybe it's a sign that I'm supposed to finish the flipping season already. I don't know what my deal has been with finishing up the season. Yeah, part of it is that I don't want my boys at odds with one another, but it's not like I don't know that I'll end up at least liking (probably loving) the episodes. At the very least, I could finally catch up on tons of fic that is based on the whole season. And really, sometimes a girl needs her fic priorities.

I got a few Borders gift cards too and since this is me, I went and spent it right away. And it was perfect timing as they had seasons of Felicity AND Alias on sale, so I was able to finish up my collections of both of those shows. I'm especially excited to get seasons 3 and 4 of Felicity, especially three as it's one of my favorites. And I was the girl who wanted Felicity to get BOTH boys. I loved her with Ben, but I also loved her with Noel as they both complemented her in different ways.

As for Alias, I picked up the last two seasons. Not my favorites, but a girl never tires of Sydney kicking ass and Spy!Daddy doing whatever necessary. Still think that Will shouldn't have disappeared...even though it doesn't seem to have hurt Bradley Cooper's career at all.

I'm now slowly catching up on Burn Notice. I *finally* finished season two and am into season three. I know I've mentioned it before, but it needs repeating: I love Michael/Fi. As a team, I love Michael, Fi, and Sam, and as much as Fi & Sam bicker, you just know they'd have each others backs regardless of Michael at this point. But really, I just love Fi. I think she's the one woman on the planet who can pull off a fanny pack and look cool and tough. And Michael just needs to suck it up and go with it.

I finished reading Generation Kill last week. Good book that made me want to pull out my dvds. And now I'm reading One Bullet Away by Nathaniel Fick. I really like the very different views of everything. Wright came at it as a reporter and Fick was in the heart of these battles with real lives on the line. I'm about halfway through and I think what I'm enjoying most is the way Fick explains all these life philosophies that were instilled him. Not just blow shit up, but ways of viewing the world.

There's also a chance I'm a bit biased toward marines, as crazy as they are. My brother was a marine and he served in the first gulf war.

So I'm trying really hard to adhere to a budget lately. Mostly out of necessity with house things coming up and such. But I cheated and bought myself two birthday gifts. One was a specialized mouse pad of Stitch that says "TommyGirl" because I'm a big loser. The other was season two of Digging for the Truth on dvd, only further proving that I'm nerd. But I loved that show. And not just because Josh was hot. It was interesting and funny (not on purpose - but whoever did the planning of their journeys really should've been fired) and yes, Josh is very hot.

Is it normal to play Wii Rockband and walk away with the strong urge to play drums? Because now I want a drum set and nobody but me thinks this is a good idea.

I'm currently rewatching Battlestar Galatica season two along with the first series of Torchwood. I'm madly in love with Captain Jack, but I knew that from Doctor Who...but Owen on TW, I love him. He can be such a jackass, but I love him so.

Mostly though, as I rewatch BSG, I am reminded of how much I love this show. I sometimes forget that because for me, BSG is a show that I don't miss so much if I'm not thinking about it/watching it actively...but once I get sucked back in, I just love and adore it and end up watching four episodes in a row.

Keep your fingers crossed that life doesn't interfere with my plans for this weekend, which are mostly made up of me getting writing done. I'm so far behind and there is so much to do. I think I need to just force myself to start writing, not worry so much about the what, but just the getting words out.

**

Also, I've been rewatching Wonderfalls on my lunch and I really want a Supernatural fic that starts pre-series while Sam is away at school where little inanimate objects with faces start talking to Dean and telling him to do things. And then when he's on the road with Sam, he tries to keep it a secret, but Sam is like, "Who the hell are you talking to?" and "Dean, why do you have a teddy bear?" C'mon guys...someone should write that.

I'm sure y'all have been missing me like whoa and I apologize for my disappearance. I was enjoying a mini-vacation to celebrate my birthday properly. Because birthdays are meant to be week-long celebrations where you are spoiled and pampered. It would be one of my first laws enacted if I ruled the world (after declaring that people need my express written consent to drive).

**

I am currently working on the remainder of the birthday fics I owe people and a crossover story that has gotten away from me. There was a time when I was productive with my writing. I mean, I've never been prolific, but I used to get some stuff done. Lately, I have no interest in it. I'm feeling blah about the whole process, including reading fic. That's not normal. Surely, I have some sort of weird fannish ennui.

**

In a much better place, I now own both Heroes and Friday Night Lights season one. There may be some more FNL fic to come at some point - I wrote one for yuletide last year - because I adore Matt Saracen. He's so damn cute. And Mr. & Mrs. Coach are just so wonderful.

So what have y'all been up to?
